Heavenly Dao Formula

The residents in Jinxia City didn't know that the whole of Shenzhou was undergoing earth-shaking changes. They just felt that this winter was particularly at ease.

Compared with the tight days of the previous few years, this time almost every household has a surplus of money, the price of charcoal fire is not expensive, and the price of food is basically maintained at a normal level. People don't have to worry about being cold because they can't light the stove, and they don't need to worry about empty pots. In addition to the necessary expenses for the New Year, most residents can also add some new clothes or new utensils to their homes, and life seems to have a bright future.

And everyone has not forgotten who brought all these changes.

If Her Royal Highness the Princess is the protector of Jinxia City, then the General Affairs Bureau established by Xia Fucheng is the beginning of a new life.

Nowadays, 80% of the big and small things in the city are related to the secretariat. Whether it is finding a job or settling a dispute, you can go to the secretariat to solve it, so that the site that was originally the Privy Council has now completely become the secretariat. The department lobby, and the Privy Council itself, was officially renamed the Privy Council and became a branch of the Bureau of Affairs.

Thanks to the continuous accumulation of prestige, the people have gradually understood one thing.

That is the promise made by the secretariat, and it will definitely be fulfilled.

And the decrees issued by it will definitely be implemented.

This made the bulletin board at the gate always crowded with people. Once any new notice was posted on it, it would definitely attract everyone's attention immediately.

In the eyes of some savvy businessmen, it is even equivalent to a business opportunity.

As December drew to a close, a new notice was posted—the red paper had just been pasted, and everyone surrounded it.

The content of the notice is not long, and it is divided into two parts.

The literate among the onlookers had already read it out.

"A new department is about to be established in the Bureau, responsible for publicizing and recording Jinxia's various achievements, interesting anecdotes, and new policy guidelines. We are now recruiting a book publisher, a paper mill, and a dye workshop who are interested in cooperating. The number of places is limited, and those who are interested can Go to the office of the secretariat to apply!"

"It turned out to be recruitment news. It sounds like the secretariat wants to publish a book by itself?"

Everyone is familiar with such notices. Except for the two major industries of the Salt Farm and the Bureau of Mechanical Engineering, the Bureau will allocate some projects for the public to participate in whatever they want to do. As long as they can meet their requirements, they will basically make a profit. pay.

It's just that the content of this cooperation is a bit biased.

"If it's just for publishing books, wouldn't the school have published several books?" Someone raised a different opinion, "They must have new requirements for publicity, so they need the cooperation of the paper workshop and the dye workshop."

"Could it be a manual like "Guide to Coping with Evil and Self-Help"? New ones will be published every one or two months, thinner than books, and the content is not like traditional books."

"It's possible. And if we want to record various achievements and anecdotes, this booklet must be published quite diligently."

"There are only one or two dyeing workshops in Jinxia City, right? It's a pity... this opportunity is not for us."

"Leaving this aside, what is the second half of the notice?"

"Let me see," the enthusiastic crowd continued, "After careful investigation, the Privy Council has confirmed that demons are essentially different from demons, ghosts, and monsters. The essence of so-called demons is the same as that of humans. Conceived. This kind of gestation has nothing to do with blood, origin, or whether it is emotional. In view of this fact, the Bureau decided to abolish all prohibitions on demons. As long as they have not violated the law, demons should enjoy all the rights of normal people. Anyone People are not allowed to harm them without reason for any reason!"

This announcement made the scene fall into a brief silence, but soon, fierce noise broke out in the crowd.

"Is a demon born from life? This is... too stupid!"

"What is the Bureau of Affairs saying? Doesn't it mean that my wife and I can give birth to a dog?"

"A dog and a dog demon are two different things."

"When the child was born, did it look like a human or a dog?"

Of course, not everyone is opposed to it. After all, this announcement was issued by the Bureau, so it is unlikely to be a joke on such an urgent matter.

"It doesn't matter who gave birth to the demon, but it shouldn't be a problem that the demon is different from other evil spirits, right? The group of long ears floating in the sea have stayed for so long, so there is nothing wrong with it."

"That's a monster from overseas, how can it be compared?"

"Oh? Could it be that you mean that my Daqi's monsters are extra ferocious and more like evil spirits by nature?"

"Ahem... dude, that's not what I meant."

It was still the enthusiastic crowd who made the final decision, "Wait a minute, this announcement seems to be written by Mr. Xia Fan himself, with his seal at the end."

The voice of doubt suddenly dropped.

"So it was Master Xia's intention... You should have said it earlier!"

"It's impossible for Mr. Fu Cheng to collude with Xie Chong?"

"What if he made a mistake?"

"Fart, you know from the evaluation of the teacher in the school. Mr. Xia knows everything about astronomy and geography. How could he make such a mistake!"

"That's all, if it's really a dog... No, dog monster, I'll admit it."

Accompanied by voices of various discussions and disputes, this announcement was like a stone thrown into a lake, causing waves to spread throughout the city in a very short period of time.

...

The only ones who have not been affected too much by the outside world are the children who sit in the school and listen carefully.

Even in the snowy winter, the teaching did not stop. The thick paper windows keep the cold wind out, and the stoves placed in the four corners of the room maintain the temperature in the room. For some children from poor families, attending school is more comfortable than staying at home.

Today's course content is the basic teaching of qi, and the lecturer is the new alchemist Luo Heng.

"Last time I have taught you the origin of qi and the difference between qi and accumulation, you should have not forgotten it?"

"No!" Everyone replied in unison.

"Very good, then this time I will focus on the classification of qi and the method of perceiving qi."

He put on a satisfied smile, but he let out a long sigh in his heart.

This is too far from the alchemist career he imagined.

If he was not the second batch of alchemists assigned to Jinxia, ​​but the first to arrive here, would he also be appreciated and valued by the princess, and ascend to the sky in one step?

But this thought only lasted for a moment, and Luo Heng threw it to the back of his mind.

He knows that he is definitely not a person who is known for his ability, and he is also less courageous than most of his colleagues. So when there was a conflict between the academic department and the command department, he was on Wen Xingyuan's side, just because the other party had older qualifications. Similarly, when Zhao Dahai warned them to evacuate, he did not follow the tall alchemist's order and insisted on staying in the Privy Council Mansion, but sneaked out of the Privy Council Mansion at night when no one noticed.

As a result, there was a wild night in Jinxia City the next day, and only four new alchemists from the academy survived, and he was one of them. And those colleagues who chose to stay in the mansion and never succumbed to Xia Fan died in the evil attack of Sha Ye.
